Desync causes really bizzare results - Icono - 2009-07-25
This is not a bug with Btanks, but you might have a good laugh over it. In the attached replay, the game desyncs at 3 minutes in. At this point Dethwng is in his own game but is still controlling his tank in both games.
In dethwngs version, he puts up a factory and turns the game around for a victory. The dark forces keep running into his creeps and dying where as the light forces stay in the base becuase in the "real" game they are losing.
In icono's version, the factory never goes up and dethwng starts to feed over and over again, not realizing that they were pushing heavily on our base. Unfortuantlly the replay from both systems was the same so you can only speculate how dethwng's version turned out. The light forces weren't getting trade income either. Really, really bizzare.

Hah, I really know how he probably felt
Btw, is the one getting desynced the only one getting/seeing the desync message or how do you tell it's you? As far as I know the whole game is affected but only one or a few notice it, correct?
I've had 4 desyncs in my last 12 or so games with the last versions and always with trader or tinker.
Had a really weird game some days ago with trader. I had just had a desync in the game before and realized something was off so I kept spamming about what was up just to get a hint if I was the one being the odd man out. Guess you're wondering why I didn't just leave and I didn't since I told them to kick me if I was feeding the other team as purple said and they didn't so I figured it was him that had desynced (there's some flaws in this theory but I think you catch my drift). Anyways, here's what I saw in the attached game:

15k vehicle cost after 47min :roll:
Edit: Tried Trader 2 more times and got desync around the 3 min mark both times. Might just be a coincidence but the odds does seem low.

Yeah seems to be associated with trader - I just played trader and desynced for the first time, funnily I was having a conversation at skype with a friend of mine - it was hillarious...
If anyone cares or is interested I can upload both versions of the replay somewhere - my desynced one and the original file from my friend....
